TradeTheNews.com Weekly Market Update: Inflation flare-up subtly shifts Fed message; Markets scrutinize Trump picks for top posts GET YOUR FREE TRIAL! Trading opened this week in the continued after-glow of the undisputed US election result. Bitcoin crossed 90K, Tesla shares continued to run, small caps outperformed mega-cap tech. EU and China markets played some catchup, but continued to remain well behind US equity performance post-election. Lots of focus remained on the makeup of the next Trump administration and what it could mean for policy. Sector performance started vary as investors discounted what the Department of Government Efficiency and other nominations could mean for individual companies. Trump made a series of key announcements including confirming the nomination of Senator Rubio for Secretary of State. Others, like his choice of Matt Gaetz for AG, and RFK to head HHS were seen as more controversial, leaving questions about how the upcoming Senate confirmation process might play out. John Thune was elected Senate Majority Leader by the GOP caucus and he emphasized his Republican team is united behind Trump's agenda. US economic readings ran noticeably hotter than expected this week. October core consumer services prices ex-energy saw a decline m/m, but housing continued to be less helpful than many economists had predicted it would by this point. Owners-equivalent rent moved back up to a gain of 0.4% rather than matching last month’s 0.3% increase and rent of primary residence did not improve from last month’s 0.3%. PPI ran slightly hotter than expected and collectively, the components that feed into the PCE price index were stronger too. Weekly jobless claims unexpectedly fell to a 6-month low. November Empire manufacturing surged to a 3-year high alongside another strong retail sales report, especially when taken in conjunction with September upward revisions. Fed Chairman Powell offered up a slightly more hawkish tone than he did just last week – his overall message was largely the same, but he clearly made an attempt to emphasize that the economy is not sending signals that the Fed needs to be in a hurry to lower rates, and also acknowledged that the PPI data was slightly more of an "upward bump" than expected. Nevertheless, futures markets still priced in slightly better odds that the Fed cuts in December but the risk to that and further 2025 rate cuts has clearly climbed. The Euro moved out to a 1-year low, falling below 105, spurred in part by the diverging 2025 rate cut expectations between the Fed and ECB. For the week, the S&P fell 2.1%, the DJIA lost 1.2%, and the Nasdaq sank 3.1%. In corporate news this week, earnings news was largely positive among the most notable names. Disney had its best quarter in some time even as reports said the entertainment giant is now casting a wider net for outside candidates to replace CEO Iger in early 2026. Shopify reasserted itself in a big way with blowout earnings and solid guidance, solidifying its place as a flourishing e-commerce platform among its behemoth competitors. Home Depot sounded quite optimistic as it beat expectations and told investors that the worst of the decline in housing turnover is probably behind us, though it was also among a number of retailers that said it was watching the tariff situation closely as the Trump Administration forms its policy plan. Tyson Foods posted strong quarterly results though it warned that the beef segment faces profitability challenges, even as poultry and pork did well. In M&A news, Capri announced the termination of its long troubled deal to be acquired by Tapestry, electing to go it alone rather than wait for changes at the FTC that might be more favorable to mergers in the new US administration.
